3 bed detached house for sale

Castle Road, Wootton, Woodstock, Oxfordshire OX20

This contemporary house combines stylish interiors with a versatile layout and a strong connection to the gardens. Designed around modern open-plan living, the principal reception spaces are bright and generous and include a front reception room and a particularly spacious dual-aspect living room at the rear. Expansive sliding doors open onto the garden, while a contemporary log burner provides a focal point for cosy evenings. The space is zoned for both relaxed seating and dining and flows into the kitchen/breakfast room, which is centred around an island and fitted with sleek cabinetry and a range of integrated appliances. Glazed doors open onto the terrace, extending the living space outdoors. The kitchen connects conveniently with a utility room, which provides laundry facilities and further garden access. A shower room, storage room and double bedroom complete the ground floor.

Upstairs, two bedrooms are arranged around a central galleried landing, with lofty ceilings and views over the rear gardens. The principal bedroom features built-in wardrobes and both rooms are served by the family bathroom.

The property is approached through double timber gates onto a resin driveway providing parking for two cars. Set behind a lawn and stone walls, the front garden is landscaped in a contemporary style, with established planting, paved pathways, gravel and well-stocked beds complementing the modern façade. The gabled front elevation features attractive vertical timber cladding, which continues around the rear.

The beautifully landscaped rear gardens centre on a paved terrace framed by raised beds planted with lavender, geraniums and other established greenery, with a lawn beyond. To the side, raised beds provide space for growing fruit and vegetables, while a log store and shed offer useful garden storage.
